Yeah.  I love this family.  I love their kids.  I love their mother.  I love their dog.  I love THEM ALL.

So so much fun today photographing Rictina and Tony — about to be married on Valentine’s Day — I mean — how APPROPRIATE!!  ::grin::

We couldn’t do the engagement shoot with just the two of them — OF COURSE we had to document this newly blended family too.  So we did both.  And I am so glad we did.

Besides…it was meant to be — in many more ways than I can list here.  But if I could only choose one thing to hallmark this day?  Weather.  It’s December right?  It’s cold and snowy right?  Not for these two.  SIXTY degrees, and while it torrentially poured ALL DAY — as soon as we started shooting.  Sun.  Blue Sky.

It’s a sign.

Here’s some sneaky peeky images for you guys.  You are going to go NUTS when you see them all — they are amazing.  Thanks for letting me run with my ideas today — it was FABULOUS!
